Meet Baby Gabriella

May 4, 2009

It’s a NIECE – er I mean it’s a GIRL!!!!

My amazing Sister in Law Catherine gave birth yesterday to a GORGEOUS little baby yesterday, Gabriella whom is my first niece or nephew that I’ve got the pleasure of having being a born-to-me-Aunt. I have inherited all of my current nieces and nephews from my marriage so I have to admit to being really stoked to have one that’s going to know me as “Aunt Corey” her entire life! Yes, I’m already planning her tutu shots. 🙂 Back in March, I took pics at Catherine’s baby shower and I mentioned it killed me not to know if it was a boy or girl… so now the shopping is ON! Woo hoo!!

We went down yesterday afternoon (we = me and part of my husband’s large family) to meet Gabriella and I was enchanted from my first look. She is by far the cutest newborn I’ve ever seen, she’s a stunner! For also only being 6 hours old, I also thought she was pretty darn alert but it could be just me! Either way, she’s a bundle of amazing and her parents are already smitten. Both Catherine and Dallas looked wee bit tired so we didn’t stick around for long (that’s why there isn’t a LOT of shots) but I’ll be making up for it soon!

Congratulations to you both, I am over the moon for all of you!!!

My first glimpse of her.
